Ooft. That's why you bring the misses with you, so you can let her drive whilst you sleep [emoji23].
Although her driving would probably put me more on edge than a double espresso... [emoji2958][emoji2958]

Sorry folks. I did ask for as late as possible tour.
It’ll all be worth it in the end.
So is the plan to meet at Abington services before 5am then?
I imagine it'll just be a case of everyone leave from Abington at 5, so not much of a need for chat before hand.

He says, hoping for an extra 15 minutes in bed
I’ll confirm all details but it’ll be meet to leave at 5. Not having a bit chat or anything before we leave just as soon as everyone is there GOQuote:

I am more than likely coming on my own or with a mate now, wife’s not keen traveller since a car accident a couple of years ago, through she might decide to come on the train nearer the time. Prob leave the house at 3.30am to allow a hour to get down from Edinburgh.

Haha yeah I don't think many people will be wanting to chat at 5am [emoji23]Quote:

No problems Craig
I’ve paid for the Factory Tour last night and is £18 pp.
Ok to give you money at weekend William?
Davy
Likewise, you can just take it off the money for the badges [emoji106]

Was reconsidering going, as it’s so relatively local to me and I did enjoy it last time we all went!
Unfortunately I’m in Devon that weekend at an outdoor cooking/BBQing competition, having just checked the diary.
I’d recommend anyone who hasn’t been, to go, well worth it![emoji4][emoji106]

The tickets for the show and the club stand pass aren’t related. As far as I’m away the club stand pass is only a pass for the car to allow the car in. You’ll still need to have got show tickets as well.
Im assuming that thoese that have their show tickets are going to be on the stand, it’s just a little reminder for those that either haven’t got tickets yet or are in 2 minds about going or not
Got my ticket for the show tail end of last year, so looking forward to being on the stand.
It’s going to be a epic weekend.
Davy
William, something has come and we will no longer be able to make it. Absolutely gutted :(.
Sorry to hear that mate, trust everything ok.
